2009-06-29slirp: Bind support for host forwarding rulesJan Kiszka1-5/+6
Extend the hostfwd rule format so that the user can specify on which host interface qemu should listen for incoming connections. If omitted, binding will takes place against all interfaces. Signed-off-by: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@siemens.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2009-06-29slirp: Rework external configuration interfaceJan Kiszka1-18/+34
With the internal IP configuration made more flexible, we can now enhance the user interface. This patch adds a number of new options to "-net user": net (address and mask), host, dhcpstart, dns and smbserver. It also renames "redir" to "hostfwd" and "channel" to "guestfwd" in order to (hopefully) clarify their meanings. The format of guestfwd is extended so that the user can define not only the port but also the virtual server's IP address the forwarding starts from.

2009-06-29slirp: Move smb, redir, tftp and bootp parameters and -net channelJan Kiszka1-98/+111
So far a couple of slirp-related parameters were expressed via stand-alone command line options. This it inconsistent and unintuitive. Moreover, it prevents both dynamically reconfigured (host_net_add/ delete) and multi-instance slirp. This patch refactors the configuration by turning -smb, -redir, -tftp and -bootp as well as -net channel into options of "-net user". The old stand-alone command line options are still processed, but no longer advertised. This allows smooth migration of management applications to to the new syntax and also the extension of that syntax later in this series.

2009-06-24qemu/net: flag to control the number of vectors a nic hasMichael S. Tsirkin1-6/+8
Add an option to specify the number of MSI-X vectors for PCI NIC cards. This can also be used to disable MSI-X, for compatibility with old qemu. This option currently only affects virtio cards. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2009-06-22net: add '-net tap,sndbuf=nbytes'Mark McLoughlin1-1/+8
2.6.30 adds a new TUNSETSNDBUF ioctl() which allows a send buffer limit for the tap device to be specified. When this limit is reached, a tap write() will return EAGAIN and poll() will indicate the fd isn't writable. This allows people to tune their setups so as to avoid e.g. UDP packet loss when the sending application in the guest out-runs the NIC in the host. There is no obviously sensible default setting - a suitable value depends mostly on the capabilities of the physical NIC through which the packets are being sent. Also, note that when using a bridge with netfilter enabled, we currently never get EAGAIN because netfilter causes the packet to be immediately orphaned. Set /proc/sys/net/bridge/bridge nf-call-iptables to zero to disable this behaviour. Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2009-06-22Support addr=... in option argument of -drive if=virtioMarkus Armbruster1-0/+3
Make drive_init() accept addr=, put the value into struct DriveInfo. Use it in all the places that create virtio-blk-pci devices: pc_init1(), bamboo_init(), mpc8544ds_init(). Don't support addr= in third argument of monitor command pci_add and second argument of drive_add, because that clashes with their first arguments. Admittedly unelegant.

2009-06-22Support addr=... in option argument of -net nicMarkus Armbruster1-3/+4
Make net_client_init() accept addr=, put the value into struct NICinfo. Use it in pci_nic_init(), and remove arguments bus and devfn. Don't support addr= in third argument of monitor command pci_add, because that clashes with its first argument. Admittedly unelegant. Machines "malta" and "r2d" have a default NIC with a well-known PCI address. Deal with that the same way as the NIC model: make pci_nic_init() take an optional default to be used when the user doesn't specify one.

2009-04-21net: Add support for capturing VLANs (Jan Kiszka)aliguori1-0/+7
This patch is derived from Tristan Gingold's patch. It adds a new VLAN client type that writes all traffic on the VLAN it is attached to into a pcap file. Such a file can then be analyzed offline with Wireshark or tcpdump. Besides rebasing and some minor cleanups, the major differences to the original version are: - support for enabling/disabling via the monitor (host_net_add/remove) - no special ordering of VLAN client list, qemu_send_packet now takes care of properly ordered packets - 64k default capturing limit (I hate tcpdump's default) Signed-off-by: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@siemens.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com> git-svn-id: svn://svn.savannah.nongnu.org/qemu/trunk@7200 c046a42c-6fe2-441c-8c8c-71466251a162

2009-04-17qemu: Add support for SMBIOS command line otions (Alex Williamson)aliguori1-0/+21
Create a new -smbios option (x86-only) to allow binary SMBIOS entries to be passed through to the BIOS or modify the default values of individual fields of type 0 and 1 entries on the command line. Binary SMBIOS entries can be generated as follows: dmidecode -t 1 -u | grep $'^\t\t[^"]' | xargs -n1 | \ perl -lne 'printf "%c", hex($_)' > smbios_type_1.bin These can then be passed to the BIOS using this switch: -smbios file=smbios_type_1.bin Command line generation supports the following syntax: -smbios type=0[,vendor=str][,version=str][,date=str][,release=%d.%d] -smbios type=1[,manufacturer=str][,product=str][,version=str][,serial=str] [,uuid=$(uuidgen)][,sku=str][,family=str] For instance, to add a serial number to the type 1 table: -smbios type=1,serial=0123456789 Interface is extensible to support more fields/tables as needed. aliguori: remove texi formatting from help output Signed-off-by: Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com> git-svn-id: svn://svn.savannah.nongnu.org/qemu/trunk@7163 c046a42c-6fe2-441c-8c8c-71466251a162

2009-03-28Syncing documentation vs. -help vs. qemu_options tableblueswir11-0/+1462
Try to keep documentation about command line switches, -help text and qemu_options table synchronized. In true Qemu tradition, an include file is generated from single .hx file containing all relevant information in one place. The include file is parsed once for getting the enums, another time for getopt tables and hird time for help messages. Texi documentation for the options is generated from the same .hx file. git-svn-id: svn://svn.savannah.nongnu.org/qemu/trunk@6884 c046a42c-6fe2-441c-8c8c-71466251a162
